Fixing Up.
The order at Saur d Balsley's Drug and
Book Store now is to clear up, fix up and
put up the goods for fall and winter trade.
New goods are coming in daily in large guam
titles. The book departments rapidly filled
up with the incest line of goods belonging to
this department, such as blank books, nearly
every size and description, albums, scrap
picture books, bibles, histories, prose, poe
try and toy books for children, which cannot
fail to attract attention on account OF the
very low prices as well az the great beauty
in the styles Of binding and engravings Of
many of the books. Special attention will be
given to the placing on sale of one OF the
finest as well as the largest stocks OF miscei-
laneous books which has ever been shown IN
Napoleon. The low prices at which many OF
the books have been bought, will enable this
house to offer such inducements to buyers as
will merit their patronage for every thing IN
the line of drugs and books.
